Major Update Speculation/Recap thread

[Doneeh]

I've never seen four cases of spam in one thread consecutively before. This is a new age.

YES SIR!

I want this update already. :([/QUOTE]

Me too so I can be either disappointed or happy instead of living in fear of a heart attack from the excitement of not knowing if my hat made it in.

[QUOTE=MrCasual;32497493]This update will bring tons of hats and no weapons?

GAH. I just got the El Jefe and completed my hat collection yesterday.

I want some new weapons like the Griefblower.

I even had some ideas for stats on it:

pros
Airblast cost -50%
Damage + 15%

Cons
Always makes chugging noises due to being a leafblower (Can't ambush with it, think reverse Tomislav for Heavy)
+150% longer switch time including animation of Pyro pulling the pull cord

Thoughts?[/QUOTE]
I don't think it should do more damage

I want Engy to have a Medigun-like beam that heals buildings and can give them overheal.

Jesus christ [I]No[/I], This and the wrangler combined would make it so goddamn overpowered.

Although it's pretty funny to see 3 engi's, one with the wrangler, other with the engi-gun, and the other hitting the sentries hold off an entire team.

[QUOTE=Sharc;32495483]The Dia de Los Muertos hat I designed (and Nzdjh made, all profits will go to him) got in? I wonder if the mask will accompany it.

I NEED THIS

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;32493114]The Demo Pirate pack is just the booties and a bottle reskinned, don't get too excited.[/QUOTE]

But they will have their own STATS yes?

[QUOTE=Forkball;32497646]Last time there was a big TF2 leak, it only took three months for some of the stuff to be put into the actual game. T-Minus 100 days![/QUOTE]

This info isn't a leak, it was put INTO the item schema. Which means these changes are in the game right now. It only needs the models & the sounds.

[ned_ballad]

Oh hey, AAA Battery (Sight for Sore Eyes) also made a Medic helmet

There's certainly no shortage of these hats

[mixshifter]

Because everyone wants that specific Stahelm model to get in (not a specific creator, but that actual hat in general.)

It fits the Medic in both his role and origin, the fact it hasn't been added previously is beyond me.

[stepat201]

I was thinking the Heavy could have a minigun that shoots healing bullets?

there was one of those planned for the Heavy update, but it didn't work out.

[cs_bunny]

Wait, Medic Stethoscope?

Is it Mnemosynaut's?

Stahlhelm =/= Nazi

But Nazi = German, and German = Stalhelm
YOUR LOGIC IS FLAWED, NZDJH

HERE WE GO, INB4 UPDATE

All things considered, it's not really related to this situation, I don't think there has ever been a major update for TF2 on a Monday.

I don't see how this relates to anything major regarding TF2.

[QUOTE=Max of S2D;32498833]I fail to see how that is relevant to the update[/QUOTE]

Evidently the guy was trying to make the point that Valve isn't out of office yet and that totally means that the update could come out tonight you guys.

I'm not holding my breath.

[Sharc]

Yeah but the fact that it isn't exactly a Valve game doesn't help it's case much.

[QUOTE=Nzdjh;32498806]Stahlhelm =/= Nazi[/QUOTE]
While that is true people tend to associate the stahlhelm with the nazis despite being introduced in WWI.

am i the only one who thinks they should go as far as allowing you to equip as much misc items as you want as long as they do not conflict

some combinations would probably allow up to 4, maybe 5 misc items — googly gazer, pipboy, medal, spurs, wingstick

I'd love that, but I somehow don't see it happening.

that would cause massive FPS drops, but yeah it would be pretty cool

Rest in peace, cp_steel.

Just wait until Thursday/Friday, fellow fellows. I have a feeling deep inside my erection-ready phallus that we'll be seeing some exciting things later this week. Don't lose hope.

[Scarabix]

You know, this could as well be a day by day update, which means it's possible it starts next monday. Just sayin'.
